1955 Chevrolet Belair

This a cool '55 driver for all your cruise-ins, local car shows, or just drive it because you can!!  Gets all the thumbs up, looks on the road, and the long conversations at the gas pump ... Bought this car mostly for my father to drive when he visits Florida, but since the visits aren't as frequent these days, we're going to give someone else an opportuntiy to own this one.

This is an older restoration of a car that is meant to be an American Graffiti type clone, but as a hardtop instead of a post.  The great thing about this one is that it isn't 'perfect' and you could actually drive it everyday or use it to chase down yellow deuce coupes ;-)

 

Details/Features:

  • 400ci V8 Engine
  • 350 Turbo Transmission (3 Speed Automatic)
  • After-market gauges and tachometer
  • Updated Master Cylinder
  • Seat Belts
  • Chrome Reverse Wheels
  • Dual Exhaust w/ new Hedders 
  • Recent tune-up and oil change

 

The engine runs very well, sounds fantastic, and makes very good power.  The transmission also shifts well.  The car gets down the road and will flow with modern traffic effortlessly.  Good working gauges, lights, and accessories (with the exception of the original clock).  Reliable car to drive and fast.

Just an old hot rod!  Not so perfect interior or exterior, but it's ALL COOL ...  To be a show car, it will need some body and paint work eventually and a few odds and ends.  That said, you can park it at Walmart or drive it everyday if you want.  You could also burn rubber all the way up the street if you so desire!  Overall, it's a sharp looking Chevy just like it is and all the yellow coupes better look out!! 

I welcome inspections and appraisers. Shown by appointment.

Drive home or I can help ship this Chevy to your door at a reduced rate via enclosed transport. If you are a long distance or overseas, I will try to work with you on the shipping.

If you would like AIR CONDITIONING added to the car, please contact me for details on that as well. We were already planning on adding this for my Dad and I can have it done for the next owner if you wish.

I reserve the right to end the listing early at any time. The car could be for sale locally as well. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. All offers considered!!

If you need help financing, I would suggest contacting a great company such as JJBest. They are easy to work with.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
